If Jesus Were Here Today

This question is one worthy of any son of God's contemplation. For it remains the only true litmus test of how far (or not) our planet has progressed since Pentecost.
If a new teacher of truth, let us say the "new John," were to arise and begin teaching those truths which the Master taught 2,000 years ago in the current social and political climate, how long would he last?
To answer that question, the reason for the assassination of our Master Son must be clearly identified. Put simply, Jesus dared to confront the Jerusalem taxing authority, represented by the Sanhedrin. He taught a way of living which was contrary to the intimidatory, fear mongering, Sanhedrin. He challenged the right of the "money changers" to collect the temple tax and he challenged the authority of the JewishTemple represented by the Sanhedrin.
Now let us contrast these facts with today's power structures. During the ensuing period between Pentecost and the 18th century, this authority was held by the Christian Church, the Jewish Temple and the Islamic Temple. Suddenly, a retrograde system appeared in Germany introduced by the patriarch of the Rothschild family. Along with the concept of the Central Bank, was the authority for taxation collection to pass from the Church to the State. The interest on debt lent by the new money changers had to be underwritten through the Central Bank concept and its partner in iniquity, the taxing authority. We now see today, represented by the outright malfeasance of governments globally, how this transfer of power and taxing has disenfranchised God's children.
Interestingly, it was the Central Bank of England headed up by one of the patriarch Rothschild's sons, which heralded this new order of the power elite. The U.S. Congress fought long and hard to avoid this Godless system, only to be defeated in 1913, by the triune legislative Acts, the Federal Reserve Act and the Tax Act. Both are needed in tandem, that the modern version of the Sanhedrin may control mankind. We here in Australia have the illegally introduced Tax Act of 1936 and a central bank called the Reserve Bank of Australia.
Now back to the question...Before we are able to honestly answer it, we must perchance, recognise just who was lurking in the shadows of those days, 2,000 years ago. It was none other than our planet's arch-enemies, the fallen Sons. As in previous planetary epochs these enemies of Michael, sought out the unbelievers, those without spirit, nor evolving souls, those crass hypocrites who mouthed the word, but lived the lie of iniquity. They represented the enemy of the Son of Man, having sold out to iniquity and sin. They stood by and watched as Jesus died on the cross of Golgotha for daring to confront the power-elite of 2,000 years ago, the Sanhedrin. His Last Temple Discourse in the Jerusalem Temple was the last straw as far as these "delighters in iniquity" were concerned; they dispatched him as a matter of urgency, lest their power to collect taxes be usurped by this Jesus of Nazareth.
So now what is our answer?
It must perforce be as follows:
Even though the current age looks different, driven by technology and knowledge, it is not. The power-elite are now the Governments of mankind; the Sanhedrin of 2,000 years ago have been replaced by unrepresentative government and dictator triumphers camouflaged by the notion of social democracies. The money changers — the tax collectors, are now the illegal government agencies empowered to enforce draconian tax regimes, illegally introduced through stealth and cunning.
Jesus would be put to death today, immediately he emerged from obscurity, such is the blood-lust of the modern Sanhedrin and the money changers.
A "new John" if he arose, would be arrested, tried and jailed within days in this current climate of political malfeasance and corruption.
Any attempt to usurp the taxing authority of any government, authorised as it is by the politics of vested interest and self interest, will be dealt with in brutal dispatch. The barricades of power, the political system of so-called democracies, are nothing more than pathetic puppets of iniquity.
Money and power rules this planet, more so today than 2,000 years ago. If anyone doubts this, just try and take away from the power-elite, that which they believe they own. The day is however dawning, when those of the power-elite, like every mortal of the realm, will come face to face with the fact that:
"THE MOST HIGHS RULE IN THE KINGDOMS OF MEN."
I commend these thought processes to every son of God, that he or she may fully understand who the enemy is and what is in store for them. Judgement is not far off.
